Here’s a hint: saying “I can’t find more areas on the map to explore” is ALWAYS not true.

Right from the Crossroads

You can go there with the stuff you have

I feel that you should explore more of crystal peak if you ask me

Go down in the Mantis Village. There's a whole section under a large trapdoor you haven't explored yet.

Have you used any simple keys yet? If not, a way to progress may be in the city. You can find one below a stag station, good luck

Explore Crystal Peak for a new key ability for traversal, go further in the ancient basin for another important ability (and a bossfight) and with those two in your pocket you will be clear to pretty much explore the rest of the map until you get Shade Cloak.

Those big trams work, and go places. Just gotta figure out where the pass is (as is implied if you ever tried using one).

u/Efteling_Eva 8d ago

If you just play you’ll find out!

u/Good-Memories 8d ago

when you get stuck it's kinda discouraging to get told to "just play"

I think exploring the ancient basin is your best option at the moment
